I just rickrolled my entire class for educational reasons.
That is all.

Hm.
Well we were talking about linguism, and our teacher wanted us to go onto youtube to find examples of various speech types. I decided to find as many as possible in "Never Gonna Give You Up" (spoiler alert: there were a lot), and put them into my google doc for the next day.
We were discussing these the following day, and when he asked for an example of a Commissive Phrase (a form of committment) I offered mine. He was like "Ah, yes. Well, I'm not sure if anyone's heard this song before, so let's play it just in case ;)"
So he played it in the background while we discussed it ("Never gonna give you up" is a commissive phrase because it concerns more than just the present and, of course, forms a committment). By the end he was like "for review" and it went into the chorus.
It was awesome.
